Majestic lioness abandoned by her pride forms heartwarming bond with conservationist rescuers she treats just like other lions

These heartwarming images show the incredible bond between a fearsome lioness and two conservationists who saved her from dying alone.

Sirga the 110lb faced starvation after being abandoned by her family - but she's found herself a new pride in the form of wildlife campaigners Valentin Gruener and Mikkel Legarth.

The majestic big cat treats the two men like she would other lions - playfully leaping on their shoulders and wrestling with the two adults.

With their help, the lioness can now hunt for prey on her own.

Footage of Sirga shows the fully grown lioness's wonderful affinity with her conversationist rescuers.

She is now a beacon for hoped success of the Modisa Wildlife Project, founded in Botswana, Africa, by Valentin and Mikkel with the hope of saving the lion population.
